One year!

Yesterday was our one-year anniversary!  :]  Can you believeeee it's been a year?  I'm pretty sure it was only a few months ago when I was assembling invitations and just getting down to all that wedding business!

I had to help facilitate our first-time homebuyer's class this weekend (yes, on Memorial Day weekend!) but Tim and I had Monday off to enjoy all to ourselves.

First we went for a walk.  The weather is sooo warm right now.  (Sometimes too humid and hot, but I'll try not to complain.)  Destination: Starbucks!  :-D

Then we made crepes for lunch!  Savory crepes that I forgot to take pictures of and a few dessert crepes!  :]

After lounging around at home, we went to explore the Esplanade by the Charles River.  Even though my train passes by it everyday I go to work, I've only seen a small segment of it and Tim's never been!

For dinner, we cooked up steak, green beans, and mashed potatoes!

I made starwberry parfaits for dessert, though we forgot to eat them until today.  :oP

We've got something a little more exciting planned this coming weekend.  I'll have to come report back afterwards!  <3

A huge thank you to everyone who did something awesome for/in our wedding, and thanks to all who came!
                        

hello?

I'm still aliiiiiive!  But I've been a terrrrrrible blogger!  I keep meaning to blog but... it requires.... work you know.  All that typing.  Optional thinking.  Pictures.  Ahhh!

Last week I was in Detroit for a training/conference.  It was a loooong week but I learned a lot.  :]

Canada was SOUTH and you could see it across the river.  Whhhhhaaaa?

Because I was out all last week, today I was swamped at work.  I ended up working late so we went out to eat at Border Cafe.  AWE. SOME.

I think today birthed the tradition of Margarita Mondays.  :oP

Chicken Bandera!  Delicious!  Tim's chicken burros was delicious too!

Annnnd I will try to post more.  Maybe.  On Friday.  Unless I decide to go shopping.  For.  Our first anniversary!!!!  Whhhhhhaaaaaa!  (Can you believe it's almost been a year?!)  What are some awesome paper gift ideas??  (We don't really want watches or clocks or things that tick.  Like bombs.)

got your mother's day card?

Terrible blogger much?  Oh busy much am I!  I don't even really have a weekend this week since I've got to sit in on our first-time home buyer's class tomorrow and Sunday from 9am-3pm!  :(

Anyway... if you haven't heard.... and you haven't gotten your mama a mother's day card yet (Mother's Day is May 8 this year)... this PSA is for you  :]

TinyPrints.com offers any Mother's Day Card for free via code "MDLOVE"  That's a perk for you since the point of this post was really just to show off these two awesomely cute cards.  haha.

SF in the Spring: Part 2

Was gonna post a lot sooner this week but it felt like a really long week!  Perhaps it was cause I was off last week and it takes extra effort to get back into things.

Part 1: The People, the Place and now...

Part 2: The Food.  haha, I basically... saw family and friends, and ATE.  A lot.  There is good food in SF that just doesn't compare in Boston!  (Though Boston is much better than say, Ithaca.  haha)
